Overview

Description

Perched atop a dune with sweeping views of Lake Michigan, this vintage 1910 summer cottage embodies the charm of a bygone era. Set on TWO ACRES with 146 feet of private lake frontage, it's a rare retreat where generations have built cherished memories—long days on the beach, golden sunsets over the water, and quiet moments lost in a book. A detached studio offers endless possibilities—an inspiring artist's haven, a private writer's retreat, or a serene home office. At the dune's base, a two-car garage provides convenience without compromising the home's elevated privacy. Whether you choose to restore its legacy or create your own custom lakefront escape, this exceptional property offers an unparalleled opportunity to embrace Michigan's lakeshore lifestyle.
